Why Does the Anti-Skid Light Stay On?
1 Answers
The reasons why the anti-skid light stays on are: 1. The ABS system activates due to slippery road conditions, in which case the anti-skid light illuminating is normal; 2. Malfunction of the ABS pump; 3. Software error causing signal transmission failure; 4. Faulty or loose sensor connectors; 5. Short circuit in the wiring or blown related fuse. The vehicle anti-skid system is primarily designed to counteract the risk of tailspin loss of control caused by continuous steering during emergency obstacle avoidance. When a vehicle experiences skidding, the first step is to firmly hold the steering wheel, ease off the accelerator as needed, and quickly determine the nature of the skid—whether it is front-wheel or rear-wheel skidding, caused by poor road conditions, or improper operations such as braking or steering. Avoid panicking and blindly turning the steering wheel based solely on instinct.
